I was hosting a private repo on there and it got to ~100MB at which point there was a banner at the top of my repo basically saying that they would encourage me to make it public considering the size. I don't remember if they stopped me from doing further pushes because of the size or not, but at that point I moved it to gitlab
I don't think there's anything wrong with them doing this btw, they're not a cloud file hosting service, they're a foss-promoting git hosting service so I think it's reasonable enough that they prefer people share their projects especially beyond a certain size.
Good to know. Ty.
